Trend Research’s 182,000 ETH Position Yields $160M Unrealized Profit Amid Bull Market Leverage Strategy

Main Idea

Trend Research's leveraged ETH position of 182,000 ETH has yielded an unrealized profit of $160 million, with a recent deposit of 17,289 ETH into a CEX as part of a strategic move during the bull market.

Key Points

1. Trend Research deposited 17,289 ETH (worth ~$53M) into a CEX as part of a strategic approach during the bull market's FOMO phase.

2. The firm previously used 2x leverage, borrowing ~$270M from Aave to acquire ETH, accumulating 182,000 ETH at an average cost of ~$2,250 per ETH.

3. With ETH priced at $3,127, the position has an unrealized gain of ~$160M, demonstrating effective leveraged capital utilization in the volatile crypto market.
